Introductions

There is no catalogue here, and no private version of one. You cannot search, browse, or ask for someone by name. There is nothing to be ranked in, and no one to be popular with.

Introductions are made one at a time, to two people who have not met. Both have been admitted and verified independently. Neither asked for the other. Either may decline, and nothing about an introduction obliges anyone to proceed.

A woman in a black dress stands in the foreground of a lit dining room, turned to look back over her shoulder. A man in a dark suit stands further away on the other side of a marble column, looking towards her. The two are separated by the room and are not touching.

Belonging to VANTA does not mean being available for introduction. Circumstances change, and willingness changes with them. An introduction is made to people who are open to one now, not to everyone VANTA has admitted.

An introduction asks something of two people at once. The decision not to make one is taken as seriously as the decision to.

No introduction is better than the wrong introduction.
